The soldiers were killed in two battles in Lebanon on Wednesday.

In the second battle, two soldiers from the Golani infantry brigade were killed by mortar bombs, and another was severely injured, Xinhua news agency reported.
The IDF also reported that a Golani combat medic was seriously injured in a third confrontation.
Among the eight fatalities was 22-year-old Eitan Oster, a squad commander of Egoz, as confirmed by the IDF earlier in the day.
